Answer:
1.because the specific heat capacity of water is height,i.e. it do nhi get hot as well as cool easily.
2.the temperature get decreases, temperature is inversely proportional to altitude.
3.because when the air rises up it it hot and dry and due to the affinity towards water it observes moisture from surrounding and condence itself and forms clouds.
Answer:
1. Because the sea waters are constantly evaporating. Proximity to water bodies causes humidity to be higher due to evaporation of water from the water surface. All other things being equal, the greater the distance from a major waterbody, the drier the air. The ability for air to hold water in the form of water vapor varies with temperature.
2. Temperature decreases. As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.
3. Cumulus clouds start forming when solar energy causes liquid water on Earth to evaporate. Water, like all matter, is made up of molecules. Heat from the Sun breaks apart the bonds holding the liquid water molecules together. This forms water vapour. The warm air filled with water vapour starts to rise. Cooler air surrounds this pocket of warm, moist air, sinking below it and eventually pushing it upwards. The result is a warm, moist, invisible pocket shaped like a hot-air balloon.
